💬 There are 11 habits that are completely sabotaging your workouts — and you’re probably doing several of them without even realizing it.
If in 2025 you still believe that “just going to the gym” is enough to build a strong, defined, healthy body, this video will be a wake-up call. The truth is, many of the things you do outside the gym — and even during your workout — are quietly destroying your progress, draining your energy, and slowing your physical evolution.

In this video, Dr. Rodriguez reveals the 11 habits that waste your workouts, especially common among men over 40, and shows you exactly how to fix each one so you can regain strength, performance, hormonal balance, and real muscle-building results.

🔥 IN THIS VIDEO YOU WILL LEARN:

1️⃣ Skipping the warm-up — why it increases injury risk and kills strength.
2️⃣ Training on an empty stomach — how it destroys performance and muscle mass.
3️⃣ Sitting all day — the “functional sedentarism” that shuts your muscles down.
4️⃣ Doing too much cardio — how you enter a catabolic state and burn muscle.
5️⃣ Avoiding uncomfortable workouts — especially leg day and its hormonal impact.
6️⃣ Resting too little between sets — the silent killer of strength and intensity.
7️⃣ Lifting more weight than you can control — ego lifting, injuries, and ruined form.
8️⃣ Not tracking macronutrients — the most destructive habit men 40+ ignore.
9️⃣ Training in a poor environment — noise, distractions, bad equipment = bad results.
🔟 Doing excessive training volume — why “more” does NOT equal “better.”
1️⃣1️⃣ Not hydrating properly — losing 2% of water = losing up to 19% of strength.
